The cat is 3 kg. What is its weight on Earth? How about its weight on the moon?​

Sagot :

Answer:

Weight on Earth= 29.4 N    Weight on the Moon= 4.8 N

Explanation:

weight=mass*gravity

The gravity on earth is 9.8m/s²

so you would do the mass of the object ( 3kg, in this exsample) multiplied by the gravity ( which on the earth is 9.8m/s²) so it would be 3x9.8= 29.4 N

The gravity on the moon is 1.6m/s²

and you would do the same to find out the mass on the moon, the mass of the object ( 3kg, in this exsample) multiplied by the gravity ( which on the earth is 1.6m/s²) so it would be 3x1.6= 4.8N

Weight is meaured in newtons (N)
